Unanswered: Front Bumper Brackets - Question

There are 4 holes in the bottom of the front bumper. Two of them bolt to the brackets that stick out on either side of the car under the marker lights. The other two holes are under the headlights. I can see the two holes in the body where the brackets attach. The question is, are the brackets that mount under the headlights the same as the brackets that are near the front markers?

Jeff, I believe they are all just tabs with nuts welded to them, maybe 1/8" thick. So that makes those 4 all the same. It's just a matter of lining up the ones you are referring to. HTH.

I believe on the one piece bumper there are actually (4) 21+ brackets required. Which is why I was asking.

Two Different ...

The brackets at the outer ends of the front bumper are different from the inner pair. The outer ones 'crank' down further and are permanenly attached tothe body sheetmetal just below the side indicator lens holes. The inner ones are much flatter (These are the #21 ones you refer to) and bolt on to the body with a pair of bolts just beside the round blinker/fog light mountings in the grille opening.

HTH
